WampServer

Solved using this post: Go into wamp\phpmyadmin\config.inc.php And change the value on Line 73 to whatever you want your password to be. Launch your MySQL command prompt and enter the following: SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost'=PASSWORD('new_password'); And you should be golden from there. I apologize for making the post, I should have searched more extensively before asking for help.

Having the exact same problem. I've tried adding the password to the root user through phpMyAdmin and the MySQL command prompt. Any ideas would be welcome, I've tried poking around some of the phpMyAdmin files but nothing seems to work.
